Completed the Airtel Delhi Half Marathon 2012 held yesterday. Was running with a bad back, without training (because of the back). No further injuries occurred except for a couple of blisters which have bandages on them now.
The run was good, the course flat & the weather bad. High humidity and a lot of sun. Kept myself well hydrated with lots of water and when I was lucky a couple of Gatorades. Met several runners before, during & after the run. All looking happy & chirpy.
There were a couple of downsides to the ADHM, but not worth recounting. It was a well organised run with plenty of water en-route, music (some of them playing highly motivational songs like Bhag DK Bose Bhag), some people on the road to cheer (more than the previous ADHMs).
Finished the run with a fantastic breakfast of tandoori aloo paranthas, an hour long massage, some sleep & beer.
Below are the race timings :
